We started this unit last week and I am already blown away by the research my students are doing. You have taken a VERY tough subject to teach and made it fun and practically simple. Some of my students are even taking their information home to read because of the excitement surrounding this unit. Thank you again. I don’t know what I did before your units.– Martina C.
My students loved this unit. I let them choose a topic and then we went through each lesson to create their essay. I thought the hand out where the students record their findings was a great bonus to this unit. It helped students keep their facts straight and helped when they wrote their works cited page. Great unit!– Ellie B. – August 1, 2021
